# Yields

Yield farming is one of the most rewarding features of DeFive, offering users the opportunity to earn **FIVE tokens** by providing liquidity to the platform. As an evolution of WigoSwap, DeFive’s farming mechanisms are designed to maximize rewards while maintaining fairness and sustainability.

By adding liquidity to DeFive, users earn **LP Tokens** that can be staked to generate FIVE rewards. While yield farming generally offers higher returns than staking FIVE directly, it comes with the risk of **Impermanent Loss**—a concept that’s easy to understand with proper guidance.

#### Key Features of Yield Farming on DeFive

1. **Earn FIVE Rewards**\
   Users who stake LP Tokens in DeFive farms earn **FIVE** as a reward. Farms are incentivized with fair APRs, governed by the **DAO and veFIVE holders**, ensuring a transparent and community-driven reward system.
2. **Fair and Sustainable Emissions**\
   DeFive’s yield farming features upgraded emission rates:

* **Up to 70% of emissions (minted FIVE tokens per second)** are allocated to liquidity providers, creating a robust incentive structure.
* Emission rates are capped at **5 FIVE/sec**, with the ability to adjust emissions dynamically for platform sustainability.

3. **Risk vs. Reward**\
   While yield farming offers higher rewards compared to staking, users should be aware of **Impermanent Loss**. This occurs when the value of tokens in a liquidity pool fluctuates, affecting the final value of your assets. Learning about this risk and managing it effectively can help users make the most of farming opportunities.
